These easy tilapia fish tacos have been a family favorite for at least a decade, and I’m so glad to share this recipe with you. Now, I know that there are a lot of ways to make fish tacos, many calling for fried fish. But I also like making them a bit lighter, though just as quick and easy.
I have been making my recipe for tilapia fish tacos for years. It relies on the fresh, natural flavors of white fish, a little taco seasoning, plenty of lime, and all the toppings. This is a super fast, light, and straightforward way to add a little seafood to taco night. I know you’ll love these, too.
Light and fresh. You’ll see that the ingredients list for fish tacos with tilapia is short, and this is intentional. I like to keep this recipe unfussy, which makes it both light and quick.
Simple. You don’t need to make this recipe complicated. In fact, I think it’s best to keep things simple! This allows the flavors of the fish to shine through. Then you can rely on whatever toppings you like to add flavor, or just serve them with an extra squeeze of lime.
Adaptable. You can make these tacos as spicy as you wish, try another citrus such as lemon instead of lime, and change them up depending on your mood with different kinds of toppings from cheese to guacamole or slaw.
